A Hand-y Bag!

I’ve made this handy little
bag for carrying around my stitching ‘bits n’ bobs’ when I’m on the move .......... this
one in brown is for me!!

and this one is for my lovely
bloggy friend, Wendy over at the ‘The Quiet Room’.

It was Wendy’s birthday
recently, so I had made her a few things, although I admit I was a tad late
sending her gifts ….. but I think she’s forgiven me though!!

I made Wendy’s with some
of the beautiful ‘Field Notes’ fabric by the very talented ‘Blackbird Designs’
ladies – such gorgeous fabric. Whereas mine (above top) was a ‘cheap as chips’
fabric I picked up in the market a while ago …… quite cute though all the same I
thought.

I’ve never sewn with PVC
before (see pocket), so that was a challenge, and I haven’t put many zippers in
before either, so it was a double whammy!! In all honesty, the brown one was a
bit of a practice run before making the one for Wendy …. wanted to make sure I got
it right you see, so I hope I did!!

A hand-y bag for when
you’re on the move, and just have to take a bit of stitching along!!

About Me

Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm Julia, 57 years old and reasonably new to making Artist Bears, which are mostly One of a Kind. I try for a vintage, quirky style, with a bit of cuteness thrown in. Occasionally you will also see other craft projects, because I simply can't resist them!!
